Are you sure you have the plugin located on the VMware vMA appliance?

The errors you are getting suggest you are trying to execute the plugin on the Nagios Core box which is not supported.

Have you followed the manual step by step?

You have to do everything with sudo like:

OK it looks like you've downloaded a really old version of the vMA appliance.

Can you please download version 5.x or 6.x and start again. It does not matter if you have v4 ESX(i) servers, the latest versions of the vMA will work with the older ESX(i) releases.

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion, I have downloaded VMA 5.1.0 version and deployed based on box293_check_vmware manual. Now i am getting the correct output when i test from vma as well as the nagios host.
But i have one more query. in my environment we have vcenter server, so i have added that vcenter server ip to vMA credential repository. so now if i assign any service definition it will check the complete vcenter server ? for ex: i want to monitor memory usage and ping, hdd usage for particular esxi, so i think here no need to add the esxi in to that vMA credential repository or its required ?

In host and service definition i have to define all esxi or only the vcenter server details ?
